[:es]‘Playful teasing’ in apes could provide clues to the evolutionary roots of early humor[:]
[:es]Even before they learn to talk, human infants and toddlers know how to joke: They play games such as peek-a-boo and take whatever unexpected actions get a rise from adults. Now, it appears that nonhuman apes—like gorillas and orangutans—engage in similar behaviors, according to a paper published last week in Biology Letters.[:]

[:es]Eating a tiny bit of mom’s poop could give C-section babies an immune ‘primer’[:]
[:es]The bacteria that live in our bodies, particularly our guts, play key roles in immunity and development. But babies born by cesarean section don’t get the rich blend of microbes that come from a vaginal birth—microbes that may help prevent disorders such as asthma and allergies. Now, a study suggests feeding these infants a small…
